Aliso Viejo, California, United States

Claremont, California, United States

- Mentored students in AP to college-level Kinematics, Dynamics, and Electricity and Magnetism- Tailored work sessions to individual students to maximize understanding

Claremont, California, United States

- Facilitated the future introduction of 840 electric bikes to the Pomona Valley as part of a four person team- Utilized principles of human centered design to design and 3D model physical docking stations in SketchUp- Coordinated with Active SGV liaison to organize and conduct interviews with key stakeholders

Claremont, California, United States

- Researched thermally stable materials for aerospace applications- Developed test methods to verify quality of brazed joints and their electrical stability under high heat- Conducted tension tests on continuous wires and joining solutions with the Instron 3343 Universal Testing System- Designed test fixture to interface with vibration tables used by the National Testing Service - Presented test results and product recommendations to Project Engineer and Vice President of Engineering

Greater Seattle Area

- Developed basic electrodynamics models for plasmonic-organic hybrid devices in a Fortran-based software- Wrote, debugged, and modified code to make the plotting of scattering spectra, electric field component profiles, vector field plots, and shape files simpler and more intuitive- Continuously improved and ran these simulations on a local cluster 30+ hours weekly for the Robinson and Masiello groups- Analyzed the results of these simulations in a thesis, and presented to Pomona physics faculty and studentsRead thesis here: https://scholarship.claremont.edu/pomona_theses/225/

Claremont, Ca

- Led weekly viola sectionals for the two CHS orchestras, a total of 10 students

Claremont, Ca

- Guided sophomore students through lab sections in addition to grading 3-4 lab notebooks each week- Advised students on data processing and error analysis techniques- Led part of the Atomic Spectroscopy lab, demonstrating the SPEX 270M spectrograph

Ellensburg, Wa

- Contributed to the development of a computational skull model in COMSOL Multiphysicsfor use in resonance research under Dr. Andy Piacsek- Volunteered on average 25-30 hours a week learning COMSOL Multiphysics- Worked on developing a model for a previous experiment (finding resonant modes of an aluminum sphere) to confirm the resonant frequencies that were observed could be predicted by the computational model
